Folks who really love motorcycles move down south and ride the year 'round. However, if you must put your bike up for the winter, I recommend Seafoam to stabilize your fuel.

A square of carpet under each wheel will help stop the tyres getting a flat spot if stood up for too long. Apart from sticking the battery on a trickle charger there really isn't any need to do anything to a bike unless its in storage for years. For the winter period I just douse the bike down in FS365 to help prevent corrosion.
Fuel will not go off if left for a few months but it can lose octane rating, so when you next ride it fill up with premium for the first refuel.
